Lyrics
Let It Be
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
When you walk in the forest, let it be.
There's a flower in the wood, let it be.
There's a flower in the wood, and it's innocent and good,
By the stone where it stands, let it be.
Let it be, let it be,
It's so lovely where it is, let it be.
Tho you want it for your own,
If you take it from its place,
It will not be what it was when you loved it
Where it stood in the wood.
Let it be, let it be,
It's so lovely where it is, let it be.
It's a thoughtful child,
Innocent and wild,
By the stone, by the reed,
Let it bloom, let it seed, let it be.
